[opensuse] ctrl-alt f1 ... ctr alt f6 do not work after fresh 13.1 install (KDE)
by Jos van Kan 17 Aug '14

17 Aug '14

Subject says it all. OS Linux 3.11.10-21 desktop openSUSE 13.1 (Bottle) (i586) KDE version: 4.11.5 /dev/Stty0 to /dev/Stty7 duly show up in Kinfocenter I chose "Automatic configuration" during installation (big mistake) but was able to recover pretty well. This issue is a bit of a showstopper though, because I use this feature fairly often. Did anyone have this issue and/or does anyone know where I should start looking?

by Istvan Gabor 16 Aug '14

16 Aug '14

Hello: The subject tells: how can I disable large balloons popping up when hovering the mouse over a desktop icon or application in the task manager in the panel in KDE4? I would prefer to have one line thick simple tooltips, how is it possible?

[opensuse] new Digikam failed to migrate database: how to restore?
by Carlos F. Lange 16 Aug '14

16 Aug '14

In the latest update of Digikam for openSUSE 12.3 (digikam-3.2.0-1.83.3) the program opens with an error message saying that it failed to migrate the database and starts empty. I still have the old files from a backup. How can I restore or import the old database? Thanks, Carlos -- Carlos F Lange Gaúcho nas Pradarias http://goo.gl/fvVhr -- Recursive: Adj.

[opensuse] Can't read IMAP mail
by James Knott 15 Aug '14

15 Aug '14

After all that "fun" caused by the repositories, I rebuilt my main system, including the dovecot server. While I can connect to that server, I can't see any new mail. I only get stuff that was received a couple of years ago. Is there something in the dovecot config that affects this? I protected the /home and /var/spool/mail directories, as per usual, so the messages are all there. I just can't read them. tnx jk -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] passing variables to a systemd service unit?
by Per Jessen 14 Aug '14

14 Aug '14

I am slowly beginning to migrate a system with multiple postfix instances to 13.1 and therefore also systemd. What is the best way of running multiple instances of postfix with systemd? Basically every "postfix start|stop|reload|whatever" needs a '-c' argument indicating the instance, for example: postfix -c number4 start The service.unit is the same, except for the <instance> argument. Can I somehow pass the <instance> as an argument or do I need just create separate service units? -- Per Jessen, Zürich (21.2°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - your free DNS host, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] gpg Key servers Yast uses?
by John Andersen 13 Aug '14

13 Aug '14

Where is the setting that tells yast which key servers to use. I wanted to add the tox.im repository and I keep getting alerts that the key can't be verified when I import it. This key wasn't showing up on us pool key servers either but it did show up on some eu pool servers. -- _____________________________________ ---This space for rent--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Grub2-EFI problem
by James Knott 13 Aug '14

13 Aug '14

I'm trying to do a net install of 64 bit 13.1. I get an error during the bootloader configuration stating "EFI distributor id isn't specified". I have never seen this before. Any ideas? I'm installing over the Internet, rather than a local source. tnx jk -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Parcellite clears selected text in LXDE?
by jcsl 13 Aug '14

13 Aug '14

Hi. When I select some text in various programs in LXDE (Leafpad, LXTerminal, Beaver, text entries in some programs like Geany, etc.) the selection is cleared (unselected) as soon as I release the mouse button (or keys if using the keyboard). I've reported this upstream [1], but the developer can't reproduce this behaviour. Is anybody facing this issue? I need to know if it is an openSUSE problem to file a bug report. Parcellite is from X11:lxde repository (version 1.1.8 revision 532), not the one in the standard repositories. It happens the same in openSUSE Factory too with the same version of the program.

[opensuse] Updates Tonight (kernel from updates repo + vbox from virtualbox repo) segfault on shutdown?
by David C. Rankin 13 Aug '14

13 Aug '14

All, I did updates earlier from the Official Updates repo and the virtualbox repo. On shutdown/reboot, the machine segfaulted HARD! core-dumped/(blinking cap-lock key hard). Seemed related to virtualbox kmp. Anybody else see this on latest updates? If I was smart enough, I'd have remembered to take a screenshot (with my phone...) Tbird updated as well - no big UI differences (it's the little things to be thankful for...) -- David C.
